GOLDEN GATE FIELDS Race #5

Friday 04/25 03:45 PM Eastern

Top pick: #5 (HOLLYWOOD GROOM) (7-2) - He's finished second in two straight including a near miss at this price tag on March 14th. One-run type draws outside of the speed types and gets a slight edge.

2nd pick: #2 (Mon Mousse) (2-1) - Gelding tired facing tougher going a mile on April 4th in his first off an Andy Mathis claim and a subsequent two month freshening. Barn drops him down in class, shortens him up in distance, and 3-year-old is a win candidate.

3rd pick: #1 (Geno's Bambino) (8-1) - Recent maiden winner tries hard every time and draws the ground saving rail for his first facing winners. One-run type is in a good barn and can impact at a square price.

4th pick: #3 (Wild Code) (10-1) - He's raced evenly in both starts since returning from a 3 1/2 month layoff on March 14. Longshot may get a minor award, but needs to do better for anything more than that.
